Chapter 12 - Cultivation(III)

"I understand, Nocturne, but saying is easier than doing. So, give me some time to focus," I said to Nocturne.

*Huff* *Huff*

After taking deep breaths, I prepared myself and started forming the foundation.

First, I need to divide my mind into three parts and focus on doing all tasks simultaneously:

One part of my mind will focus on purifying my blood, another on creating the mana circle, and the third on forming the Soul Core.

"God, this is going to hurt a lot. How can a dragon's blood be further purified? Screw it, I'll do it."

"Alright, now I need to divide my mind first."

After 2 minutes of focusing, I managed to divide my mind, and now we've come to the hardest part, which is forming the foundation.

"Now, for all of these, I must gather energy up to the point of a border."

15 minutes later, I gathered enough energy to move on to the first stage.

"Having a skill at the level of the primordial void is truly magnificent."

"Now, I must load everything at once to be able to form the foundation."

*Huff* *Huff*

With one final breath, I drew in all energies and purified my blood, created my mana circle, and formed my Soul Core.

"AAAAGGGGGGHHHH!"

I screamed in pain. Because writing runes on the mana circle, purifying my blood, and forming the Soul Core all at once requires intense concentration.

"At this level of concentration, the level of pain increases several times, because I am focusing on myself and intensifying my feelings several times."

"Screw it, really, my brain, heart, and soul feel shattered."

"The countless runes worked to form the circle in my soul and the energy that strengthened my body. The only thing that prevented me from fainting was forming the Soul Core. Because as my Soul power increased, the weight on my mind decreased and I was less tired, which relieved me."

*Huff* *Huff* "Damn, this is tough, I must endure a little longer, but it's really tough."

15 minutes later:

"Ah, damn it, I don't want to experience something like this again. I feel like my whole body has been torn apart."

I opened my eyes and suddenly became aware of a disgusting smell.

When I lowered my head, I managed to look down with a few creaking noises.

What I saw was really disgusting, because it looked like I had pooped myself.

"You really did it, Aldrich, congratulations, now you have the best foundation in the entire cosmos," said Nocturne.

"Well, why did my impurities come out of my body again already experienced something like this in a short time," I asked Nocturne.

"Then what you experienced was impurities in your body, meaning the impurities you absorbed from the meat of the mana monsters and other foods. Now the impurity that came out of your body is the impurity of the energy you absorbed from them, and this will happen with every shot. So prepare yourself, a perfect foundation requires perfect pure energy," said Nocturne.

"I see, thanks for the information, Nocturne," I said.

I got up from where I was sitting and sat back and listened to Nocturne cross-legged.

"You can now raise your training separately, but make sure they're even," said Nocturne.

"I understand, then I'll continue my training now," I said.

"Don't rush and make sure you're at the peak of your stage," said Nocturne.

I nodded in agreement and focused on looking at my Spirit area and entered my Spirit area.

The first thing I encountered was my more distinct Spirit, which was probably because I entered the Blood purification phase.

Of course, the Circle around him was very eye-catching.

A huge Circle around my Spirit, and the core at the right place where the brain should be, really resembled a human.

I'll start with the Mana Circle from development.

Right now all I'm doing is drawing the Mana circle, meaning it's almost useless.

I need to focus on passing the Mana to my body and allowing it to flow.

I focused on passing the Mana to my body and passed it to the Circle.

As the Mana flowed into the circle, it began to shine and, after some time, a plain white circle was created.

Now I should start strengthening this circle.

For this, I will write more runes for him.

5 minutes later, my job was completely over.

It won't be difficult to transfer these runes to the Mana Circle, but I still have to work hard.

"Let's go. Huff* Huff*"

2 minutes later, I completed all the runes and transferred them to the Mana Circle.

"Ah, this is really relaxing. The feeling of Mana filling my circles is comforting."

Now I need to move a bit to adjust the Mana filling in my body.

I opened my eyes and saw Diaval and Nocturne, who were still looking at me with curiosity.

"Hey, why so quiet, Diaval?" I asked jokingly.

"It's none of your business, kid." said Diaval.

"I thought your job was to strengthen me." I said.

"Nocturne is here to tell the basics, and I'll tell you something when it's time," Diaval said.

"So you're not a good teacher, huh?" I said in the same joking tone.

"Shut up, kid. I'll show you how good a teacher I am when you get stronger. You haven't even learned the basics yet and you're asking me for guidance." said Diaval.

"HAHAHAHAAHHAHA." Nocturne and I laughed at the same time.

Dealing with Diaval was really fun, and Nocturne and I enjoyed it very much.

"Stop laughing." Diaval shouted, but we continued to laugh regardless.

We stopped laughing shortly after.

"Now I have to go to my dad, but you can't see me, right?" I asked.

"Don't worry, Aldirch, only you and the heirs of Phoenix can see us." said Nocturne.

I really like Nocturne's polite attitude, even though I feel like I've known him for years despite having just met him.

I met Laura on the way to my dad's room.

"Hello Laura, how are you? I haven't seen you since the awakening ceremony." I said.

"Thank you for asking, young master, I'm fine and I'm glad to see you. Are you going to Lord Aaron's?" she asked.

"Yes Laura, I'm going to my dad's." I said.

"Allow me to accompany you, young master." said Laura and we continued walking together.

"Laura, what do you think about what happened at the Awakening ceremony?" I asked.

"We are very hopeful for you, young master, because your talent has really peaked and compared to the highest talents of other races, you can compare your talent to the Princess of Phoenix, which is your fiancé." said Laura.

"Really Laura, our engagement is not even certain." I said.

"I believe you will get along with him, young master, if he is like his family, he is really a good person." said Laura.

"Do you know his family, Laura?" I asked.

"Yes young master, they used to visit here a lot before you were born and they were really good friends with your family." said Laura.

While we were chatting, we had already reached my father's door.

I stood in front of the door and knocked because I didn't want anything like before to happen.
